Who It's For

This deck is ideal for tarot collectors, particularly those who appreciate limited edition artist's decks and unique thematic interpretations. It will appeal to readers with an interest in poetry, particularly the works of W.B. Yeats, and those who prefer to work exclusively with the Major Arcana for deeper, more archetypal readings. Given its specialized nature, it may be less suited for complete beginners seeking a comprehensive 78-card system.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many cards are in the Stolen Child Tarot?
The Stolen Child Tarot is a 24-card deck, specifically focusing on the Major Arcana. This means it includes the traditional 22 Major Arcana cards, potentially with two additional or variant cards, as is common in artist's editions.
What is the inspiration behind the Stolen Child Tarot?
The deck is directly inspired by the poem 'The Stolen Child' by the renowned Irish poet W.B. Yeats. This literary influence suggests a thematic exploration of themes such as the allure of the fae, the loss of innocence, and the boundary between the human and magical worlds.
Is the Stolen Child Tarot a full tarot deck?
No, the Stolen Child Tarot is a Major Arcana-only deck, consisting of 24 cards. It does not include the 56 Minor Arcana cards found in a standard 78-card tarot deck.
